A Moment's Worth

Everyone has a moment,
maybe every day,
maybe every week. 
A moment that 
comes into your mind,
your heart,
your body,
your everything,
and leaves you feeling
like you could do anything,
in that time,
in that moment.
I was sitting at my dining room table,
preparing for school,
savoring my last minutes
of relaxation,
and this feeling
hit me,
flooded me,
ran through the cracks
and crevices of my soul,
giving me a moment to 
believe that right now,
I could write anything.
I could write an entire book of
my thoughts,
my words,
my hopes.
I could write a book all night long,
with no writer's block,
no fatigue,
no doubt.
These moments,
these unpredictable moments,
are the ones that submerge my mind
in what I love to do.
After days of engaging,
listening,
helping,
speaking,
working, 
it truly is like nothing else,
to be completely 
and undividedly
on your own
for just a little while.
